Another change that would affect the entire soccer world is
being examined after a controversy-filled World Cup.

The USMNT were in the midst of the controversy at times, but

Bradley’s side to drop seven slots to number 25 in the latest FIFA/Coca-Cola
World Rankings.

Finally, the protected lists for the WPS Expansion Draft are
out, with Heather Mitts of the Philadelphia Independence jumping out as the
biggest available name when the Buffalo/Rochester expansion franchise begin to
fill out their squad.
